概要
クイックファクト: 歴史的なゴール要塞の城壁に位置するこの白塗りの灯台は、1939年から船を導いています。高さ26メートルの塔は要塞の南端に立ち、眼下ではインド洋が古代の石壁に打ち寄せています。
見どころ: ほとんどの灯台が単独で建つのとは異なり、この灯台は16世紀のオランダの稜堡壁の頂上から直接そびえています。日没時には、構造全体が深い青い海を背景に黄金色に輝き、そのすぐ下の岩場では地元の漁師が釣り糸を垂れています。
インサイダーヒント
- Walk around to the seaward side of the lighthouse for the best view of the waves crashing against the fort walls.
- Come during weekdays early morning to have the spot almost entirely to yourself before tour groups arrive.
- The adjacent fort ramparts offer a higher vantage point for photos that include both the lighthouse and the ocean.
- Skip climbing the lighthouse itself, it's not open to the public, but the surrounding area is the real attraction.
